This month we will be discussing Death in the Off-Season by Francine Mathews. Spunky but inexperienced, third-generation Nantucket cop Meredith Folger investigates murder in this spare, atmospheric debut. Wealthy farmer Peter Mason is shocked to learn of his estranged brother's return to the island. Rusty, who'd fled to Brazil after a fight with their father and an insider trading scandal, shows up infected with the HIV virus, apparently addicted to cocaine - and then dead, hit by a car and left on Mason property face-down in shallow water to drown. 

Copies of the book are available at the South Yarmouth Library and West Yarmouth Library circulation desks, or you can check out the ebook on Overdrive/Libby or the audiobook on the Hoopla app with no wait time on either. Please email ckaufmann@clamsnet.org or call the library at 508-760-4820 to register to receive a Zoom link or with any questions.
